Domain: Quality of Service Counter definition: Number of TCH (in HR or FR usage) drops due to BSS problem during any TCH handover preparation and execution phases. This counter is incremented on the cell on which the problem occurs(In the case of internal inter-cell handovers, it is not incremented on both serving and target cell). For problems that are not related to a specific cell, the counter related to the serving cell will be incremented. It may happen that several causes of failures mentioned below are detected consecutively. In that case, the counter will only be incremented once, as soon as the handover procedure fails. Trigger condition: 1) Whenever the BSC receives on Abis interface from the target cell negative acknowledgment to the TCH channel activation involved in the handover procedure. 2) Whenever the timer supervising the Channel Activation procedure (T9103) expires on the target cell during activation of a TCH channel involved in the handover procedure. 3) Whenever an 48.058 ERROR REPORT message with a cause value of "O&M intervention" is received on Abis interface from either the serving or the target cell during the external or internal inter-cell handover procedure and leads to a transaction failure. 4) Whenever an 48.058 ERROR REPORT message with a cause value of "O&M intervention" is received on Abis interface on either the old or the new channel during the internal intra-cell handover procedure and leads to a transaction failure. 5) Whenever an 48.058 ERROR REPORT message on SAPI 0 with a cause value of "message sequence error" is received on Abis interface from the serving cell between the sending of the 48.058 CHANNEL ACTIVATION message and the reception of the 48.058 CHANNEL ACTIVATION ACKNOWLEDGMENT during the internal inter-cell TCH handover and leads to a transaction failure. 6) Whenever an 48.058 ERROR REPORT message on SAPI 0 with a cause value of "message sequence error" is received on Abis interface on the old channel between the sending of the 48.058 CHANNEL ACTIVATION message and the reception of the 48.058 CHANNEL ACTIVATION ACKNOWLEDGE during the internal intra-cell TCH handover and leads to a transaction failure. 7) Whenever a LAPD failure related to either serving or target cell is reported to the Layer 3 of the BSC (for an RSL supporting a TCH transaction for handover purpose) and leads to a transaction failure. 8) Whenever an TCH handover abortion is initiated by the BSS O&M FAULT MANAGEMENT application part or by the BSS TELECOM application part as the result of a system defense action which may be due to BSS equipment failures external to the BSC (e.g. RSL failure or CU recovery failure), or due to BSC internal hardware problems (e.g. TCU failure or DTC failure) or due to BSC internal software problems (e.g. inconsistencies detected between software modules or lack of software resources (memory, timer reference, file reference...) or communication problems between different processor boards). 9) Whenever a 48.058 CONNECTION FAILURE INDICATION message with a cause value of "remote transcoder failure" is received on Abis interface from the old channel between the sending of the 48.058 CHANNEL ACTIVATION message and the reception of the 48.058 CHANNEL ACTIVATION ACKNOWLEDGE during an internal intra-cell or inter-cellTCH handover procedure and leads to a transaction failure. Notes : 1. TCH handover failures which are due to O&M operator actions on BTS or BSC should not be counted. Indeed, in case of numerous failures due to O&M commands, this counter will overestimate failures which are due to problems which are internal to the BSS. However, due to the current implementation which does not allow to be aware of the origin of the failure, O&M operator actions will also be counted. 2. It may happen that the counter can not be incremented since it is implemented within the faulty entity.

Domain: Quality of Service Counter definition: Number of TCHs assigned in the serving cell for which TFO has been successfully established. Trigger condition: For each assigned TCH, the counter is incremented the first time a 48.058 TFO REPORT message is received by the BSC, indicating that TFO is established (i.e. TFO = 1 in the TFO Status IE). Note 1: This counter shall be incremented only once per assigned TCH (i.e. the first time it is received for the assigned TCH). Note 2: A TCH is seen as assigned in the serving cell between the sending of 48.058 CHANNEL ACTIVATION message and the receipt of the 48.058 RF CHANNEL RELEASE message. This means that the counter can be incremented either if the TCH is assigned to serve a normal assignment or if the TCH is assigned to serve an incoming internal (inter-cell or intra-cell) or external handover.

Remark: If an internal directed retry is attempted and failed while T11/T11_forced is running, the request is un-holded and the BSC waits for the expiry of the relevant timer. Consequently, this counter must not be incremented upon the failure of an internal directed retry.

Domain: Quality of Service Counter definition: Number of TCH (in HR or FR usage) drops in TCH established phase due to remote transcoder failures (per TRX). Trigger condition: The counter is incremented whenever a 48.058 CONNECTION FAILURE INDICATION message with cause "Remote Transcoder Failure" is received on Abis interface for an established TCH connection. The BSC considers a TCH connection as "established" once a 44.018 ASSIGNMENT COMPLETE message (in case of normal assignments or an internal intra-cell handovers) or a 44.018 HANDOVER COMPLETE message (in case of an internal inter-cell incoming HO or an external inter-cell incoming HO) has been received for the TCH connection. Note 1: MC739 = C739. Note 2: The counter is incremented only once per established TCH connection. Thus, even if the BTS sends several 48.058 CONNECTION FAILURE INDICATION messages with cause "Remote Transcoder Failure" for a particular established TCH connection, BSC will increment the counter only once for that connection.

Domain: Resource Availability & Usage Counter definition: Average number of busy TCH radio timeslot (in FR or HR usage) and busy dynamic SDCCH/8 radio timeslot allocated as TCH. Trigger condition: The BSC takes periodically a sample of the number of busy TCH radio timeslots and busy dynamic SDCCH/8 radio timeslots allocated as TCH. The sampling period is set to the value indicated in the Status Inspection field. At the expiry of the accumulation period, all samples are averaged (i.e. summed and divided by the number of samples). The averaged value is rounded up or down to the nearest value with an accuracy of 0.1. A TCH radio timeslot is considered as busy during the time it is allocated to a given MS for TCH traffic (in HR or FR usage). A dynamic SDCCH/8 timeslot allocated as TCH is considered as busy during the time it is allocated to a given MS for TCH traffic. Note 1: the counter value that is indicated in the ASCII file (which can be obtained via the OBSYNT interface) is an integer value (i.e. it is as if the BSC multiplies by 10 the average). The reported value shall then be divided by 10 afterwards so that the value that is displayed to the end-user is the correct one.

Domain: Resource Availability & Usage Counter definition: Cumulated time (in seconds) during which the SDCCH request(s) are not served because no SDCCH sub-channel is available. Trigger condition: The time counter is started whenever a SDCCH request cannot be served. The time counter is stopped whenever one of the following conditions is checked: - if a SDCCH sub-channel becomes free and usable on a static SDCCH timeslot or on a dynamic timeslot allocated as SDCCH (i.e. when the timeslot is known from the SDCCH_RM module). The term "usable" means here that the SDCCH sub-channel is not mapped on a TCU in a very high overload state, or, - if a SDCCH request is served successfully. This condition corresponds to the case the SDCCH_RM module requests the TCH_RM module for a dynamic SDCCH timeslot.

Type limitations (per BSS): The maximum number of cells observed for this measurement type is 15 cells. Type definition: This measurement type provides observations on SDCCH channel. An observation is composed of a set of records, each record being related to a single channel seizure within the observed cell. A record is a consistent structure of data made up of several fields (called DER) providing information about the radio configuration and about specific events that are cumulated. Not all channel seizures are observed in the cell, but one per sample_rate value. For an observed SDCCH channel, the recording of data starts in the BSC as soon as 08.58CHANNEL ACTIVATION is sent on Abis.

An observation is composed of a set of records, each record being related to a single channel seizure within the observed cell. A record is a consistent structure of data made up of several fields (called DER) providing information about the radio configuration and about specific events that are cumulated. Not all channel seizures are observed in the cell, but one per sample_rate value. The counters related to 2G neighbour cells can be repeated for up to 32 neighbour cells. The concerned counters are named eg "Rnn13" were "nn" belongs to the range 00 to 31. The counters related to 3G neighbour cells can be repeated for up to 8 neighbour cells. The concerned counters are named eg "Rn18" were "n" belongs to the range 0 to 8. For an observed channel, the recording of data starts in the BSC as soon as 48.058 MEASUREMENT REPORT is received on Abis by the BSC.

Type number: Type name: Type scope (per BSS): Candidate for Standard

Type limitations (per BSS): The maximum number of cells observed for this measurement type is 15 cells. Type definition: This measurement type provides observations on internal intra-cell or inter-cell SDCCH or TCH (in HR or FR usage) handover. An observation is composed of a set of records, each record being related to a single channel seizure within the observed cell. A record is a consistent structure of data made up of several fields (called DER) providing information about the radio configuration and about specific events that are cumulated. Not all channel seizures are observed in the cell, but one per sample_rate value. For an observed channel, the recording of data starts in the BSC as soon as 04.08HANDOVER COMMAND (for inter-cell handover) or 04.08ASSIGNMENT COMMAND (for intra-cell handover) is sent on Abis by the BSC.

As these causes are internal to the cell, there is no constraint relatively to the cell environment. - Causes 7, 17, 18 apply only to serving micro-cells. As cause 7 is internal to the cell, the target cell may be a neighbour upper layer cell or a neighbour micro-cell. Causes 17 & 18 apply to a serving micro-cell handover towards a target upper layer cell. - Cause 12 applies to both serving and target neighbour cells belonging to the same layer whatever their size is. For macro/micro cells, this cause applies to handovers : from single layer to single layer from single layer to upper layer from upper layer to upper layer from upper layer to single layer from lower layer to lower layer - Cause 14 applies to a serving upper layer cell handover towards a target macro/micro lower layer cell.

Evolium

Type limitations (per BSS): The maximum number of cells observed for this measurement type is 15 cells. Type definition: This measurement type provides observations on incoming external SDCCH or TCH (in HR or FR usage) handover. An observation is composed of a set of records, each record being related to a single channel seizure within the observed cell. A record is a consistent structure of data made up of several fields (called DER) providing information about the radio configuration and about specific events that are cumulated. Not all channel seizures are observed in the cell, but one per sample_rate value. For an observed channel, the recording of data starts in the BSC as soon as 08.08HANDOVER REQUEST is sent on A interface by the BSC.

Type number: Type name: Type scope (per BSS): Candidate for Standard

Type limitations (per BSS): The maximum number of cells observed for this measurement type is 15 cells. Type definition: This measurement type provides observations on the TCH channel. An observation is composed of a set of records, each record being related to a single channel seizure within the observed cell. A record is a consistent structure of data made up of several fields (called DER) providing information about the radio configuration and about specific events that are cumulated. Not all channel seizures are observed in the cell, but one per sample_rate value. For an observed channel, the recording of data starts in the BSC as soon as 08.58CHANNEL ACTIVATION is sent on Abis interface by the BSC.

The BSC is able to process the request either : - entirely (i.e. for all cells of the list) : the BSC sends a REPORT SUCCESS to the CBC - partially (i.e. for a part of the list) : the BSC returns a REPORT SUCCESS to the CBC - not at all (i.e. for no cell) : the BSC returns a REPORT FAILURE to the CBC if the cause of the reject is the same for all cells, otherwise a REPORT SUCCESS is returned. When a REPORT SUCCESS is returned, the No-of-Broadcasts-completed-list optional Information Element specifies the number of cells successfully served by the request. This IE is not provided when no cells can be served.

BS_TXPWR is the BTS transmitted power defined relatively to the maximum absolute output power of the BTS. BS_TXPWR is expressed in dB, whereas BTS_MAX_OUTPUT_POWER is expressed in dBm. Note that the formula is written independently of the coding used for the variables. The function abs() gives the absolute value of its argument. 3) corresponding averaged value of Timing Advance For Cij, the result is given as follows : Cij=Vij x 254 / Max_i, where Vij represents the real number of measurements, and Max_i the greatest value of Vij, for i given (see RMS4b). Cij=0 indicates 'number of measurements = 0' Cij=254 indicates 'number of measurements = Max_i' Cij=255 is reserved to indicate overflow. The values of the average BS power level (2) and the average Timing Advance (3) are directly given, both with a precision of 0.25. Note that these values (2 and 3) that are indicated in the ASCII file, which can be obtained via the OBSYNT interface, still have to be divided by 4, whereas the values that are provided at the user interface are the correct ones. DL RXQUAL can take values from 0 to 7. Level band i is defined by : MEAS_STAT_LEV_(i-1)<= RXLEV < MEAS_STAT_LEV_i MEAS_STAT_LEV_0 = -47 dBm, MEAS_STAT_LEV_10 = -110 dBm According to 3GPP, values of RXLEV lower than -110 dBm are considered as equal to -110 dBm Trigger condition: Whenever in a 44.018 MEASUREMENT RESULT DL RXQUAL is equal to j, while DL RXLEV for the same call is in the given interval of MEAS_STAT_LEV.

Domain: Resource Availability & Usage Counter definition: Average number of parallel TCH in use for VGCS per cell during observation period. TCH used for VGC listening service and TCH used for VGC talking service are both counted. Trigger condition: The BSC takes periodically a sample of the number of busy TCH radio timeslots allocated for VGCS. The sampling period is set to the value indicated in the Status Inspection field. At the expiry of the accumulation period, all samples are averaged with an accuracy of 0.1 (i.e. summed, multiplied by 10 and divided by the number of samples). The averaged value is rounded up or down to the nearest value. Note : The reported value shall then be divided by 10 so that the value that is taken into acount (interger and decimal parts) is the correct one.

Domain: Quality of Service Counter definition: Number of TCH (in HR or FR usage) drops due to BSS problem during any TCH handover preparation and execution phases. This counter is incremented on the cell on which the problem occurs(In the case of internal inter-cell handovers, it is not incremented on both serving and target cell). For problems that are not related to a specific cell, the counter related to the serving cell will be incremented. It may happen that several causes of failures mentioned below are detected consecutively. In that case, the counter will only be incremented once, as soon as the handover procedure fails. Trigger condition: 1) Whenever the BSC receives on Abis interface from the target cell negative acknowledgment to the TCH channel activation involved in the handover procedure. 2) Whenever the timer supervising the Channel Activation procedure (T9103) expires on the target cell during activation of a TCH channel involved in the handover procedure. 3) Whenever an 48.058 ERROR REPORT message with a cause value of "O&M intervention" is received on Abis interface from either the serving or the target cell during the external or internal inter-cell handover procedure and leads to a transaction failure. 4) Whenever an 48.058 ERROR REPORT message with a cause value of "O&M intervention" is received on Abis interface on either the old or the new channel during the internal intra-cell handover procedure and leads to a transaction failure. 5) Whenever an 48.058 ERROR REPORT message on SAPI 0 with a cause value of "message sequence error" is received on Abis interface from the serving cell between the sending of the 48.058 CHANNEL ACTIVATION message and the reception of the 48.058 CHANNEL ACTIVATION ACKNOWLEDGMENT during the internal inter-cell TCH handover and leads to a transaction failure. 6) Whenever an 48.058 ERROR REPORT message on SAPI 0 with a cause value of "message sequence error" is received on Abis interface on the old channel between the sending of the 48.058 CHANNEL ACTIVATION message and the reception of the 48.058 CHANNEL ACTIVATION ACKNOWLEDGE during the internal intra-cell TCH handover and leads to a transaction failure. 7) Whenever a LAPD failure related to either serving or target cell is reported to the Layer 3 of the BSC (for an RSL supporting a TCH transaction for handover purpose) and leads to a transaction failure. 8) Whenever an TCH handover abortion is initiated by the BSS O&M FAULT MANAGEMENT application part or by the BSS TELECOM application part as the result of a system defense action which may be due to BSS equipment failures external to the BSC (e.g. RSL failure or CU recovery failure), or due to BSC internal hardware problems (e.g. TCU failure or DTC failure) or due to BSC internal software problems (e.g. inconsistencies detected between software modules or lack of software resources (memory, timer reference, file reference...) or communication problems between different processor boards). 9) Whenever a 48.058 CONNECTION FAILURE INDICATION message with a cause value of "remote transcoder failure" is received on Abis interface from the old channel between the sending of the 48.058 CHANNEL ACTIVATION message and the reception of the 48.058 CHANNEL ACTIVATION ACKNOWLEDGE during an internal intra-cell or inter-cellTCH handover procedure and leads to a transaction failure. Notes : 1. TCH handover failures which are due to O&M operator actions on BTS or BSC should not be counted. Indeed, in case of numerous failures due to O&M commands, this counter will overestimate failures which are due to problems which are internal to the BSS. However, due to the current implementation which does not allow to be aware of the origin of the failure, O&M operator actions will also be counted. 2. It may happen that the counter can not be incremented since it is implemented within the faulty entity.

Domain: Quality of Service Counter definition: Number of TCHs assigned in the serving cell for which TFO has been successfully established. Trigger condition: For each assigned TCH, the counter is incremented the first time a 48.058 TFO REPORT message is received by the BSC, indicating that TFO is established (i.e. TFO = 1 in the TFO Status IE). Note 1: This counter shall be incremented only once per assigned TCH (i.e. the first time it is received for the assigned TCH). Note 2: A TCH is seen as assigned in the serving cell between the sending of 48.058 CHANNEL ACTIVATION message and the receipt of the 48.058 RF CHANNEL RELEASE message. This means that the counter can be incremented either if the TCH is assigned to serve a normal assignment or if the TCH is assigned to serve an incoming internal (inter-cell or intra-cell) or external handover.

Domain: Resource Availability & Usage Counter definition: Average number of busy TCH radio timeslot (in FR or HR usage) and busy dynamic SDCCH/8 radio timeslot allocated as TCH. Trigger condition: The BSC takes periodically a sample of the number of busy TCH radio timeslots and busy dynamic SDCCH/8 radio timeslots allocated as TCH. The sampling period is set to the value indicated in the Status Inspection field. At the expiry of the accumulation period, all samples are averaged (i.e. summed and divided by the number of samples). The averaged value is rounded up or down to the nearest value with an accuracy of 0.1. A TCH radio timeslot is considered as busy during the time it is allocated to a given MS for TCH traffic (in HR or FR usage). A dynamic SDCCH/8 timeslot allocated as TCH is considered as busy during the time it is allocated to a given MS for TCH traffic. Note 1: the counter value that is indicated in the ASCII file (which can be obtained via the OBSYNT interface) is an integer value (i.e. it is as if the BSC multiplies by 10 the average). The reported value shall then be divided by 10 afterwards so that the value that is displayed to the end-user is the correct one. Note 2: This counter does not take into account the PDCH radio timeslots allocated to the MFS. External comment:

Remark: If an internal directed retry is attempted and failed while T11/T11_forced is running, the request is un-holded and the BSC waits for the expiry of the relevant timer. Consequently, this counter must not be incremented upon the failure of an internal directed retry.

Domain: Quality of Service Counter definition: Case: 48.008ASSIGNMENT REQUEST is queued because no TCH (in HR or FR usage) is available in the cell, timer T11 (case MSC requests for queuing whatever QUEUE_ANYWAY value may be) or timer T11_forced (case QUEUE_ANYWAY=1, i.e. the queuing is forced within the BSC) is started, and before the timer expiry, the request is dequeued due to the receipt of a higher priority request (i.e. 48.008ASSIGNMENT REQUEST) : the BSC sends 48.008ASSIGNMENT FAILURE (cause: "no radio resource available") for the first transaction. Remark: As soon as an internal directed retry is attempted, the request is blocked within the BSC and cannot be dequeued by a higher priority request. Trigger condition: The counter is incremented upon the sending of the 48.008ASSIGMENT FAILURE (cause: "no radio resource available") for a dequeued TCH request (i.e. normal assignment) due to the receipt of a higher priority request.

Domain: Quality of Service Counter definition: Number of TCH (in HR or FR usage) drops in TCH established phase due to remote transcoder failures (per TRX). Trigger condition: The counter is incremented whenever a 48.058 CONNECTION FAILURE INDICATION message with cause "Remote Transcoder Failure" is received on Abis interface for an established TCH connection. The BSC considers a TCH connection as "established" once a 44.018 ASSIGNMENT COMPLETE message (in case of normal assignments or an internal intra-cell handovers) or a 44.018 HANDOVER COMPLETE message (in case of an internal inter-cell incoming HO or an external inter-cell incoming HO) has been received for the TCH connection. Note 1: MC739 = C739. Note 2: The counter is incremented only once per established TCH connection. Thus, even if the BTS sends several 48.058 CONNECTION FAILURE INDICATION messages with cause "Remote Transcoder Failure" for a particular established TCH connection, BSC will increment the counter only once for that connection.

The time counter is stopped whenever one of the following conditions is checked: - if a SDCCH sub-channel becomes free and usable on a static SDCCH timeslot or on a dynamic timeslot allocated as SDCCH (i.e. when the timeslot is known from the SDCCH_RM module). The term "usable" means here that the SDCCH sub-channel is not mapped on a TCU in a very high overload state, or, - if a SDCCH request is served successfully. This condition corresponds to the case the SDCCH_RM module requests the TCH_RM module for a dynamic SDCCH timeslot.
